Great confirmation of the primacy of the Italian dog in the European Cup for the English and the resounding success of the derby in Altamura di Bari. Breeds, veterinary and behavior.
The Italy of competitive dog lovers remains on the highest podium in Europe: the national team won the English European Cup in Serbia, a great event for nations reserved for setters and pointers.
A truly sensational success that confirms the records achieved in recent years and makes the prestige of our breeding even greater. The Altamura derby confirmed that there are young people with less than 30 months capable of taking the place of many champions and therefore giving continuity to the Italian leadership.
The chronicles of these important events and many others, including exhibitions and tests, are described in detail in "Our Dogs". The cover reproduces the Welsh, and inside a beautiful article describes its race and behavior.
“The derby has once again reconfirmed the value of Italian breeding - says Francesco Balducci - and the ability of our drivers to have athletes capable of maintaining the primacy. It must be said, however, that all the Italian dog lovers are going through a great period of growth and I know that today's successes are the seed for many other results in the near future. There is only to continue on this path, for all races, accentuating the commitment of ENCI in the social field. "
